New modes for subsurface atomic force microscopy through nanomechanical coupling
New modes for subsurface atomic force microscopy through nanomechanical coupling is a scholarly work by Thomas Thundat, published in 2009 in ''Nature Nanotechnology''. The main subjects of the publication include optics, nanoscopic scale, conductive atomic force microscopy, Optomechanics, Kelvin probe force microscope, scanning probe microscopy, cantilever, nanomechanics, magnetic force microscope, force spectroscopy, Atomic force acoustic microscopy, non-contact atomic force microscopy, atomic force microscopy, pipe coupling, materials science, -, nanotechnology, microscopy, atomic force microscope, chemical physics, and microscope. The authors show that an atomic force microscope can obtain a range of surface and subsurface information by making use of the nonlinear nanomechanical coupling between the probe and the sample.
